Akdong Musician's '200%' Shoots To Number 1 On Billboard K-Pop Hot 100

Brother-sister "K-Pop Star 2"-winners Akdong Musician soared to the top of the Billboard K-Pop Hot 100 this week, taking home the number one and number three spot in the second week their debut album "Play" entered the chart.

The leadoff single "200%" is currently at number one, after debuting at number 17 and their song "Give Love" is at number three after entering the chart last week at number 31.

"200%" has also topped the Korean record charts Melon, Mnet.com, Olleh Music, Genie, Daum Music and Monkey3 for the last two weeks.

As if that wasn't enough for the famously shy teens, "Play" is also currently ranked at number two on Billboard's World Albums chart.

Debuting at number two this week on the Billboard K-Pop Hot 100 is the IU collaboration with the boy band HIGH4, "Not Spring, Love Or Cherry Blossoms."

IU both wrote and co-produced the song, which appears to be timed for the spring, a gimmick that earned tremendous staying power on the Billboard K-pop chart for pop rock trio Busker Busker's song "Cherry Blossom Ending."

Jumping up eight places this week, into the number number four spot on the chart, is the song "Relationship" by R&B singers Yoon Min Soo of the duo Vibe and Shin Yong Jae of the group 4Men.

"Relationship" entered the Billboard chart two weeks ago.

Rounding out the top five this week is girl group A Pink's newest single "Mr. Chu." The single has had a jumpy three weeks on the Billboard chart, debuting at number 25 jumping to number, before landing at number five this week.

This week was the first time in over two months that "Some" by Sistar singer Soyou and Junggigo hasn't had a presence in the top five.

"Some," which was released as part of the soundtrack from the smash hit Korean television drama "My Love From The Star," dropped to number 10 from it's rank last week, at number four.
